Southfield 2013 Inauguration/November 18, 2013 City Council Meeting

On November 18, 2013 newly elected officials of Southfield, Michigan were sworn into office.  Breifly following, a City Council meeting was held to elect Council officers, president and president pro-tem for the next year.

Note: Well I can't hide from the fact that I only partially know "The National Anthem" anymore. At least it wasn't "Lift Every Voice and Sing" or "The Lord's Prayer". You know what I'm just going to have to make a list of stuff I should memorize. I need to work on the "Venetian and the Turk" and "Because it is my name." speeches as well.  And of course there is the St. Crispen's Day Speech.

Of course the writer has not the tongue for oratory, or song. No my gifts lie elsewhere. Leave me to my pen and let the sweet voices ring elsewhere, for mine lies in the script.  Though perhaps if my true verse is to be heard it must be heard. Is not rhetoric not for the ear instead of the eye?  Oh cut it with the purple Miles. You need to work on your public speaking and you know it.
